Honestly, I don’t want life advice from rich people. I’m not rich. I’m not going to be rich. I’m trying to work in humanitarian aid, which is not where you go to make the big bucks (I’m okay with that, as I am kind of a lazy bum and have few aspirations to buy/own stuff like houses or cars - eternally single and…

Honestly, same. Its not entirely my jam, because a lot of pumpkin spice products are just too sweet for me, it’s a pretty harmless thing to enjoy. I’ve been seeing people posting on Facebook about how people should lay off because they liked pumpkin spice when it was in the kitchen and made for them, but not for…

I know! Like, they didn’t want any gay content, so someone like Anne Rice was banned, and witchery, so J.K. Rowling, but that series was apparently not well-known-enough to catch their eye, so a few floated around the library.

This almost sounds reasonable if you haven’t had to deal with people who have this kind of disorder, but it can actually cause issues, too.

My school actually did try to ban the Harry Potter books. The whole series wasn’t out yet, and it was just climbing in popularity. A number of students complained, because seriously, you want us to read, and then when we do read, you get mad at what we read.

I tried that, too.  But then I had a two-year gap and nothing to show for it.  I had done a little volunteering during that time, and had had some health issues, but a big gap in work experience wasn’t exactly helpful, either.

I honestly don’t know! I no longer have a vehicle, and I was originally from a pretty rural area, so I am fairly ignorant on how it would work, unfortunately. From what I can tell, it seems like it’s not really any better.  It could be different in different areas, of course, and some people do seem to be making it…

If you have an education, a lot of those “entry-level” places just straight up won’t hire you. I was willing to take just about anything (not working in a daycare was my one “line”), and I couldn’t get hired. I had a Master’s, so they were like, “...wtf. No, you clearly will just jump ship the first chance you get.”.…

Personally, I love anything sour - I’m living in one of Sweden’s southern neighbors, and the hapupiim, kefir, and other tart yogurt/milk variants are delightful to me.  And I put them on muesli, too!

Same. And I really, really don’t want the work of being responsible for caring for other people’s kids. I don’t have any, I don’t want any, and I don’t want to be the “auntie” to yours, either.  No ill will, just no want for children.

I’m vegetarian, and I talk about it occasionally (food is a topic that comes up a lot, and people notice that I don’t eat meat, so they ask, I tell them). I have now moved to a place where no one gives a shit what I eat and why, but back in my home country and region, everyone cared, it seemed. So much judgment for…

My major quibble with how Ross initially handled it was that he did not agree to take a break. He just slammed the door and left. Nothing was decided, though I get that in the heat of the moment, it can be hard to think straight and hash it all out.

Dolly Parton, I believe!

No, I talk to his mother every day and hear about it.

My sister has two children, both of whom are boys. One is a little over two, the other is under 6 months. I am so thankful she isn’t a “boymom”.

I do believe in the possibility of redemption, but I also don’t think that it has to mean that people forget what happened. If, say, I get drunk and get in a fistfight, then I can redeem myself, but if people don’t like drinking with me anymore, that’s reasonable.  If their judgment of my character has changed, that…

After they switched their name policy, OkCupid absolutely dried up in my area.  I checked it a few months back, and it was literally the same people.  There are about 20-25 people on there, and I know half of them!  It’s a bummer, but if you want to meet people, you often have to go to where the most people are.

I miss the heydays of OkCupid. It was not perfect, but I felt like I “got” the system.

My dad met met stepmom through newspaper personals! His favorite thing was how many people said they loved to laugh, because he, of course, hates to laugh or have fun.

Whaaat?!  I had no idea!  I mean, it makes sense, and is very... on-brand, but wow!
